We come before the throne of grace with deep concern and urgency for your young son, lifting him up in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have authority to bind the works of darkness and declare freedom. Your heart as a parent is clear—you desire your son to walk in righteousness, obedience, and protection from ungodly influences that seek to corrupt his mind and spirit. We stand with you in this spiritual battle, for the Word of God declares that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12).
First, we must address the gravity of the influences you’ve described. Ungodly relationships—whether with females, males, or those who embrace New Age ideologies or rebellion against God’s Word—are dangerous snares that can lead your son into spiritual bondage. The Bible warns us, *"Don’t be deceived! ‘Evil company corrupts good morals’* (1 Corinthians 15:33). Your son must be severed from these connections completely, for they are tools of the enemy to distract him from the path of righteousness. The Lord commands us in 2 Corinthians 6:14, *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? What communion has light with darkness?"* This is not merely a suggestion but a divine mandate for his protection and spiritual well-being.
We also recognize the importance of parental authority established by God. The fifth commandment instructs, *"Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which Yahweh your God gives you"* (Exodus 20:12). Your son must submit to the godly leadership you and your wife provide, not out of fear, but out of reverence for the Lord who has placed you as his authorities. Proverbs 1:8-9 says, *"My son, listen to your father’s instruction, and don’t forsake your mother’s teaching: for they will be a garland to grace your head, and chains around your neck."* Obedience to parents is not optional; it is a reflection of obedience to God Himself.
Now, let us pray with boldness and faith, claiming the promises of God over your son’s life:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You that You are a God who hears the cries of Your people and delivers them from the snares of the enemy. Lord, we lift this young son to You, asking for complete and total deliverance from every ungodly influence that has sought to entangle him. By the power of the Holy Spirit, we bind and break every connection—spiritual, emotional, or physical—that he has with ungodly females, ungodly males, New Agers, and rebels against Your Word. Father, we declare that these influences have no authority over him, for *"No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is of me,"* says Yahweh (Isaiah 54:17).
Lord Jesus, we ask that You expose every lie that has been spoken to him or that he has believed. Let the truth of Your Word pierce his heart and mind, so that he may see these influences for what they truly are—tools of the enemy to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). We pray that You would give him a spirit of repentance if he has entertained or embraced any of these ungodly ways. May he turn wholly to You, cleaving to Your Word and Your commandments, for *"Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path"* (Psalm 119:105).
Father, we pray for a spirit of honor, respect, and obedience to be poured out upon him toward his parents. May he submit to their godly authority as unto You, Lord, for this is Your will. Remove any spirit of rebellion, stubbornness, or pride that may be hindering his heart. Soften his heart, Lord, and let him walk in the humility of Christ, who *"humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, yes, the death of the cross"* (Philippians 2:8).
We declare, according to Deuteronomy 28:7, that *"Yahweh will cause your enemies who rise up against you to be struck before you. They will come out against you one way, and will flee before you seven ways."* Every evil influence, every ungodly soul tie, and every scheme of the enemy against this young man is now broken and scattered in the name of Jesus. We command these influences to flee and never return, for *"Resist the devil, and he will flee from you"* (James 4:7).
Father, we ask that You would surround this son with godly influences—men and women who fear You and walk in Your ways. Raise up mentors and friends who will encourage him in righteousness and hold him accountable to Your Word. May he grow in wisdom, stature, and favor with You and with others, just as Jesus did (Luke 2:52).
We also pray for you, his parents, that You would grant you wisdom, discernment, and strength as you guide him. May Your Holy Spirit lead you in how to shepherd his heart, and may Your peace guard your home. *"Unless Yahweh builds the house, they who build it labor in vain. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain"* (Psalm 127:1). Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Finally, Lord, we thank You for the victory that is already won through the blood of Jesus. We trust that You are faithful to complete the work You have begun in this young man’s life. May he grow to be a mighty man of God, a warrior for Your kingdom, and a testimony of Your delivering power. We ask all these things in the precious and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, to whom belongs all glory, honor, and power, forever and ever. Amen.
Stand firm in your faith, dear parents. The battle is the Lord’s, and He has already won the victory. Continue to cover your son in prayer, saturate your home with the Word of God, and walk in obedience to His commands. The Lord is your strength and your shield; your heart can trust in Him, and He will help you (Psalm 28:7). Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap, if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9). The Lord is with you, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6).
